Our Mission

Renewing the home of Fairborn youth baseball and football.

The mission of The Sports Park Upgrade Project is to identify and execute the necessary actions and activities required to upgrade the current Fairborn Cement Park Little League Baseball and Wee Hawks Football playing facilities (originally called Ernie Apt Field). This includes developing a master plan, completing enhancements as identified in the master plan over a period of several years and the fund raising necessary to complete these activities.
